I don't suppose any of yous have ever read the Constitution... the US Constitution is what Imma talking 'bout... didn't think so... I also doubt that any of yous know about our founding fathers... who they were, what they thought... what they were trying to do... didn't think so... yet, here you are... here we are, living in this country, living under a constitution that we haven't read, don't really know about it or its purpose other than it gives us freedoms and allows us to own guns and in some places carry them on our person anywhere we wants to go...
And, I also betcha that you are white like me which is why you don't really care about the constitution... because if you are white then the constitution does not take you for granted... as it does if you are black...
How does I knows this... I gots me lots of black friends...
Our US Constitution was written by WHITES that were WEALTHY and who (for the most part) owned black slaves. Some of these slaves were treated well, but some were not. Our US Constitution did not even recognize them as a WHOLE PERSON... can you believe that?
SO... our founding fathers did not write the Constitution for everybody... they only wrote it for the white people... who they must have deemed as superior... although the only people that they really thought were superior were themselves... the WEALTHY WHITES...
Today... it is no different... WEALTHY WHITES control everything... and, while there are some blacks that have become wealthy, these wealthy blacks are acting more like WEALTHY WHITES than WEALTHY WHITES are...
These enlightened black people believe that our US CONSTITUTION should be rewritten to reflect not just the black population but ALL MINORITIES... and, while they have a good point... it would set a dangerous precedent because I don't think the smartest people that we currently have in this country are as smart as our founding fathers were... while that might be sad, it is nonetheless true.
Our Democratic Republic is fragile. We are the only country in the world that has the freedoms that we have... How will taking some of those freedoms away change us? Will we one day regret that change?
The other issue of our Democratic Republic is our free market enterprise system of commerce. Not like any other in the world and so far very successful... But what happens if these wealthy, powerful companies try to change our behavior to suit the products they are trying to sell?
Do we want them to control us like that?
Is the enemy the constitution or the wealthy white man or the wealthy company?
How far will we let big tech control us through social media that they and only they regulate?
